The expression of LILRB4 on lung interstitial macrophages was upregulated in COPD patients. a The flow cytometric gating strategy for detecting leukocyte lineages in human lung tissue. b The gating strategy of the flow cytometry for detecting human lung macrophages. c Representative histograms of LILRB4 expression on lung T cells, B cells, neutrophils, natural killer cells, dendritic cells, monocytes, and macrophages. Black line indicates staining with an isotype control antibody for anti-LILRB4. d Representative histograms of LILRB4 expression on monocyte, alveolar macrophages, and interstitial macrophages in the single cell suspension prepared from the lungs of never-smoker control or COPD patients.
